Riverfest headlines the issue as summer winds down — Clarksville's longest-running festival on the banks of the Cumberland, the beloved arts-and-recreation celebration that draws tens of thousands to the riverfront each fall.
“How Staging Sells” offers homeowners practical real-estate guidance on presenting a property to sell, useful coverage in a shifting housing market, while “Tattoo Removal Option” provides a cosmetic-care feature.
“Photography: Confessions from an Uptight Mother” brings a relatable, humorous take on the universal parental struggle to capture the perfect family photo — the kind of warm, knowing feature that makes readers smile.
Safety coverage rounds out the issue, and the recurring departments complete a September number balancing festival fun, practical home guidance and a good-natured look at family life.
The recurring departments and photo pages round out a September issue that balances festival fun, practical home guidance and a good-natured look at family life.
